Comments on: Shaivite Hindu Symbols: The Trishula http://western-hindu.org/2009/10/14/shaivite-hindu-symbols-the-trishula/ A blog about how I as a westerner embraced Sanatana Dharma, the Eternal Way of Hinduism Wed, 08 Feb 2012 15:08:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: ARJEN http://western-hindu.org/2009/10/14/shaivite-hindu-symbols-the-trishula/comment-page-1/#comment-615 Fri, 25 Dec 2009 13:47:27 +0000 http://western-hindu.org/?p=382#comment-615 its now proved with the asian genome project that no aryan invasion occured, it was a lie made by christian invaders…….the whole of india was populated through the south NOT NORTH…….in fact what it goes to show is…the frist africans went to india who became the indians..it was the indians then that moved up out of india getting lighter in skin tone the further they moved into colder climates of northern india…it was then those indian who orginted from the south who moved north and eventually went on to populate EUROPE…….taking with them customs and traditions of India…The biggest misconception india was about twice as big as it is now……indian lands stretched right up to Iraq and Iran, therefore indian culture moved as far as to the middle east and europe and eastwards to china and japan. The similarities seen all have one thing in common india, its people, its faith.

The chakra/discus that Lord Vishnu has, is also interpreted as the “kala chakra”(meaning the wheel of time). The Damaru/conch symbolizes that God can be attained through japa and by singing his glory. Also sometimes the God is shown with many heads and arms. The heads symbolize different aspects of Godhood.
And sometimes demons are also depicted with many heads, to represent that they had intelligence equivalent to many heads- eg.Ravana is shown with 10 heads. Similarly many arms means strength equivalent to many arms.

Are they related somehow?

Is Aryan “invasion” true? Or was it the opposite?

Now we all know that Aryan invasion is fake and it was just a story by British imperialists.

It is believed that during the Orion period(7000 BC), many Sanathani Aryans migrated from Indian region to Europe, where they settled and got mixed with the natives.

Over the years they developed their own religious beliefs(thought to be mix of Sanathani and native beliefs):

- Various Gods,Goddess,Demi-Gods in Greek and Hindu “mythology”. Sun god, Love god, War god etc.

- Belief in Re-incarnation

- Cremating the dead ones

- Belief/Faith of being lineage from Gods. Like Son of Sun God etc

- Gods having family

Some “similarities”( can be called as modified versions)

Lord Shiva = Lord Vishnu = Lord Brahma

All are same

Wow!
Thank you for this entry! I am happy to read it (hopefully the first part of a series…). The meaning of one of the symboles has just been made even more clear to me. So I would like to encourage you to go on with this job if possible, please. It must be very helpful, in my opinion. So I am looking forward to the descriptions, explanations of other symboles as well.
Thank you in advance.
Erzsebet
